Health guidance published by Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora is available to help you to decide if your student is well enough to attend school, including those students experiencing anxiety.

The guidance supports your decisions as parents and caregivers about absence, the importance of minimising disruptions to learning, and positive re-entry to learning after sickness.
